It’s been 19 years since my husband and our 2 daughters passed away in a car accident and I know many people including family still see me as the pitiful woman who lost her family. I’ve learnt to live life with grief in it but not defined by it, I just wish others could accept that for me too. Your words are always so inspiring and relatable to many in a diverse range of circumstances. Thank you Joe x

Dear Joe, This is so timely, I loved it, (have commented before),I was an RN but have ended up with inoperable thyroid cancer, still here after three years of radiotherapy and three years of lenvatinib, lying in bed pondering ….. have been home a week after my second rod and screws replacement for my fractured femur, for which I am extremely grateful. Like you I was a gym person, three times a week and as a nurse I understand this situation can come to anyone, I love your pondering as I feel I am having to start to think more! Anyway much peace and hugs, you are a very wise and caring person, keep doing what you are doing, we are all in this together☺️

*This!!* I have bone marrow cancer. (Myelofibrosis). The bone marrow transplant surgeon told me that I have too much organ damage to live through a transplant. It is what it is. I'll be on chemo pills for the rest of my life. My cancer and bazillion meds make me too tired to be me anymore. I can't work...and I'm too tired to be social (I used to loooove being out around people)... My identity used to be so tied up in those things...... Now I'm in bed 95% of the time. I'm not me anymore. I miss me. I'm SO sorry you're going through cancer. It's an awful thing. Something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Take care. ❤️

Many good points given Joe in not giving up and how to make life's situation you have been dealt into something positive. Talking about how you have seen the changes happening to your body physically with your illness, the same thing happens to us that are old, yes, it happened more slowly, but yet it happened. I hate to look in the mirror at this old lady looking back at me. The hands are old, all the aches and pains, lack of strength or energy. You know your days are numbered, your body starts getting one ailment after another requiring you to take more medications to treat the symptoms and new illnesses. Yes, I am grateful to have lived to be old, but it seems like just yesterday I was young! As they say, (of which you don't realize until you are old), that the years do fly by! Even when you get old, you want to live longer. Thank you for sharing your wise words to live for now and not think of tomorrow or of the past that you cannot change. What can you live for and do today? Great advice! I love the lyrics to the song "One Day at a Time". Leaving out the religious aspect to respect your belief, the words can still be a self reflection you are saying to yourself to help in building your mind, body and strength to get through each day. One day at a time, that's all I'm asking of you. Just give me the strength to do everyday what I have to do. Yesterday's gone, and tomorrow may never be mine. Just help me today, show me the way, one day at a time.

I so understand this now far more than I was nursing as now I am the patient. I do not recognise myself in mirror, I can no longer walk dogs 4 hours a day and run off my stress. I am not seen people they talk to my daughter or husband despite me being right there... Why because I am now in a wheelchair not only professionals but family and friends talk about me as if I am not there. Occasionally folk go take up a off road wheelchair sport little do they realise the costs thousands and then how do you transport them. but physically I am no longer person I used to be. Even clothes different as need to work with wheelchair and ablitiy to transfer. It is a challenge not only physically but very much mentally I find my joy ie it annoys me I can no longer be in mosh pit or right at front of Live Gig but heck something nice in custum seat with a good view and a drink service with out queuing. These joy moments have to be hunted for in darker moments but great when found.

Joe, so many of the things you expressed relate to aging as well. I have been struggling with the loss of identity since I turned 60. I've had many illnesses, and chronic pain, so much so that my husband is my caregiver now. My hair is gray, and I'm in a wheelchair, and I was so angry with the way many people treated me in shops. They would speak to my husband, rather than to me in the chair, even if it was my appointment, or me that wanted the new laptop. It was like I became invisible overnight. I used to be pretty, and sexy, and very smart. I used to sew beautiful clothes, was a loving mother, and used to paint and wallpaper in my home. I loved it!! I had an excellent job with the government, that I loved, and did very well at it. I have never been able to articulate my feelings as eloquently as you have here. I try to explain the level of pain I experience, but because I look pretty good on the outside, people just don't get it. They hear what I'm saying, but don't comprehend it. I can no longer go to family events, and travel is getting very difficult. I haven't driven in about 3 or 4 years now, where I used to drive all over the province for my job. I loved driving, and had a shiny red Toyota Celica that was super sporty and I loved driving it. Illness robs you of your personality, and the joy you used to find in your hobbies and pastimes. I used to love dancing, and can't do it anymore. Even in the past 6 years I've seen losses each year. Thank you SO much for this video Joe. You are such a lovely young man, and even though you are the one with cancer, you are helping so many of us to understand ourselves, and to be more accepting of change. I hope I can be as philosophical and at peace as you seem to be. I'm sending my love to you from Toronto, Canada!

Thank you so much for this video. I can relate to this so so much, yet it is something that nobody talks about. I have lost everything in my life these past four years or so and I am left with nothing. My hardest blow this far was losing my best friend that I spent my days with each and every day. I miss her in such an indescribable way. It is an indescribable pain. I no longer have anything to look forward to. A big part of me has died and I no longer know who I am. I no longer have a spark for living. I used to be soooo happy. I no longer know that girl. I miss her. The new person I have become with all my losses throughout the year leaves me unrecognizable. I no longer enjoy life, but I can’t change any of it. I cry uncontrollably everyday. Nobody around me understands or seems to understand the loss I have faced. If anything, they are thriving in life and improving everyday. I’m envious. Why me? Why my best friend? She, even more so than me, was soooo incredibly amazing. The most amazing person I had ever met. She changed everyone for the better. She was a true light. I wish I could’ve taken her spot. Joe, I truly admire your resilience and not wanting to give up. I can’t say the same about myself. Thank you for the message.

It's amazing how such a big thing happening in your life can humble you and make you realize how important the smaller things are in life. Being a gym bro is a somewhat materialistic thing and getting cancer just shows that you are just as vulnerable as everyone else. It brings you down to reality and makes you think about other people and how they go through what you are going through. It makes you see the world in a wider lens instead of the narrow one one you were looking through before. I think it's important for everyone to go through something big in their lives (not cancer, of course) to bring them down to Earth and widen their view of the world.

Cant help noticing slight yellow tint in your face skin ... ..hope your okay . Looks worrying. Hopefully is just the camera lighting. Made me sad hearing how you said " whats the point " ... ...its difficult even doing the basics like eating , sleep and play . I must say you dont look as sad today which is heartwarming to see. Losing your identity is no joke . As a long term sufferer of serious deadly illnesses .. ...it took 10 years ( my 30s ) to see me go from fit to a bedridden weakling . I also feel im not me any more . So i totally understand what you mean. Its almost like a death while you are alive . The old me went along time ago. When i finally go , it will be second passing away. Its not easy at all.... I feel this is what it feels like for the elderly people. One great thing is that Joe is looking younger by the minute .

Yes indeed. I mourn my old life. I get angry missing my strength. A strong nurses aide to in bed most the day. Stage 3 (tumor the size of a golf ball paralized my vocal cord) in 2013 metastatic thyroid cancer for 9yrs. I also care for my 12 year old son with moderate autism. So I save what I have for him. Taking showers is becoming a challenge. Is it in my mind? No it can't be!? I was strong full of life and did everything. Now I watch. I'm shocked the Dr hasn't offered hospice or something? Everything is a I don't know? It's a rare cancer so they don't really study or try looking for cures as much... That makes me angry as well. Falling down the stairs last night I told my husband I can do the laundry I can no longer carry it. My muscles are wasting away. I only had radioactive iodine which did nothing for me. So they do surgery when I get into trouble or possibly chemo. I have never had that, my Dr said it's rarely given in my type of cancer andvits a nasty one as well. Papillary with tall cell carcinoma and BRAF V600E mutation, the 1 that turns it anaplastic. So I sit and wait with a big (?). The bright side October 2023 I beat the 10yr life expectancy mark.

I've had a lot of experience going through radiation and immune treatments but for psoriasis. I used to work out and stay fit until one day I started getting so dizzy and my vision would blur and psoriasis spread all over me. I lost 40lbs of gains and ended up under weight. I lost who I was and was training to be. I had to be bald for two years to treat my scalp but it grew back but yes it is gray. Now that you mention the snap feeling I have felt something like that before I found an effective treatment. I leaned down into the refrigerator and felt a snap on my back and fell on the floor with numb legs. My legs have gone numb on occasion. I've had a lot of doctors and most of them say it is psoriasis and arthritis.

Hi Joe if you had the right diagnosis straight away would your prognosis be different.ive always thought if people are diagnosed correctly you have more of a chance of survival. I am a cancer surviver being diagnosed with non Hodgkin's lymphoma.i had no symptoms just a lump on my neck. I do admit its a scary journey. I hope there is a cure eventually for you and others in that position to make a cancer become unterminal which will be the biggest breakthrough. Take care and look after yourself.

It wouldn't have changed my chances as the cancer progression would have continued down the same path, the only difference is they don't usually use chemo for thyroid cancer except at the end, after chemo my cancer was stable for 8 months without treatment which is pretty good. I then started lenvatinib which wasn't actually available before so logically I don't think it would have reduced my chances.

I don't have a terminal diagnosis, at least not in the sense most people think of it. We all have a terminal diagnosis as we will all die at some point. This was a great video and something I think a lot of people can relate to, whether they have received a terminal illness diagnosis, a chronic illness diagnosis, or have had something traumatic happen that changed the way they see things, among many other scenarios I am sure. We're all changing all the time. We're not the same people. Sometimes this change is more obvious than others and it can make it more difficult. But we are all always changing. It's good to take note of those changes every now and then, regardless of health status, to make sure we are changing for the better.

Joe, thank you so much for posting this! I do not have cancer but I have Lupus and multiple other autoimmune problems. RA, Eosoniphilic Duodenitis, pulmonary embolisms, Giant Cell Arteritis, type 2 diabetes insulin dependent, hypertension, thyroid nodules (just had ultrasound. They are ok for now. To be rechecked in early 2023),multiple upper spine joint problems and lumbar joint problems (constant pain), frozen joints in my feet, lymphedema in left leg, pancreatic insufficiency, dysphagia of the esophagus (sometimes I choked on food) and other gastro things. Most of the time I feel like I am being pecked to death by ducks! My point is after Lupus got me, my whole life changed. I was in and out of hospital for a year. On heavy doses of prednisone and methotrexate and Plaquenil and other scary drugs. I lost most of my hair at the beginning. Lupus does that and then it changed color to grey. Also, I am allergic to so many things I stopped wearing makeup because of all the coloring and additives. I had to stop wearing or using anything with fragrance. Scent plays a big part in our lives as humans! Most people don’t realize that. Anyway, I didn’t recognize myself in the mirror anymore. Also, with all the attacks on my joints I had to stop gardening in my yard. This was a big part of my life! I had to limit all activities that put a strain on me. That meant missing out on family gatherings and hosting family dinners and holiday parties. I have cut my hair short and have somewhat come to terms with my new normal (this is what Luppies like to say). I think some of my family members still haven’t. People ghost you if they can’t deal with the changes. But thanks again, you brought up some very good points and I appreciate it.

You're essentially the same person you have been and are now. You're not a thyroid cancer patient, what's is to be that??? You're not a martial arts person neither. You're not a different self, just because your hair colour changed. Under it, it's the same self, the same self before 2016, same self from now. Martial arts as part of your identity? All: martial arts, physical strength, hair colour, good health, etc. were temporary things that occurred in your life. If you search within yourself, you'll find attributes that really are part of who you are as unique human being, your true identity, attributes that nothing, nobody can take away from you, except Death, and even so, I firmly believe those unique, defining characteristics follow each of us to eternity

What are you talking about? I still have incurable thyroid cancer. I've never claimed its been cured, if you followed my vlogs you would know it's literally got worse and worse over time. It was misdiagnosed as anaplastic thyroid cancer in 2018 and the pathology was reviewed last year (2021) and was reclassified as poorly differentiated thyroid cancer, still incurable, sightly less aggressive than anaplastic though. It has continued to progress since.

Sure being humble in itself is a virtue, but I don’t see how him having cancer has brought anything good or valuable into his life. I don’t see that he has needed such humbling in the first place. He really didn’t deserve any of this.
